Bacon fried rice
I used the unsliced ends of the peppercorn bacon I get from my hometown butcher to cut some massive lardons and fry up some leftover veggies and rice. It's a tasty way to enjoy less than crisp veggies.

You ran this by a uncle Roger first right? Looks amazing regardless
My rice cooker is the one with the elephant AND I added a sprinkle of MSG. I think this is Uncle Roger approved. Hiyaaaa
The wok hei looks on point as well.
Thank you! I was trying to stay as close to traditional as I could get. While there are toasted sesame seeds in there helping to boost that slightly charred visual, I do cook over the strongest burner I have and constantly keep things in motion.
Oh! And I also tried putting the soy sauce around the outside of the pan this time, which I do think added some extra caramelized flavor to the dish. Much better than just sprinkling it over the rice and watching it all get soaked up before it can cook.
I bought a wok and a portable butane burner so I could attempt it as well. Teaching my niece how to make bacon fried rice was a lot of fun. I want a better burner now, though.
Brilliant!
Nice fried rice.
